There's too many stars for me to see the black sky
The black sky's what I was hoping my gaze would find tonight
There's too many stars for me to see the night time
The night time's what I was hoping was gonna hold me tight
There's too big a sun to shine this little light of mine
All I really want is to be swallowed by the night
All I really want is to be swallowed by the night
It's too big a shame to have passive immobility
So please pass me with nobility so that I may watch you fade
And I'm tearing at the seams to pull this fire from my dreams
When I'm lost and a little bit afraid
I keep my heart under the shade and I'm doing it for my health
I ain't fooling anybody except my foolish little self
I wish I'd been prepared, I wish that I'd done it right
And all that I'll end up being Lord is swallowed by the night
All I end up being is swallowed by the night
